Only option would be a stopover.
I believe QF still fly F from HKG-SYD, and you might be able to find one of the JL/CX flights from NRT-HKG that still has F class, but it's dependant on the aircraft which switches quite frequently.
Otherwise, you're stuck doing NRT-SIN/BKK and grabbing the BA flight to SYD from there.

If OW is not essential and money is no object, SQ flies the A380 from SYD-SIN although the later 77W is a more convenient connection to a A380 SIN-NRT. 
The return is a 380-380 connection.

Not true:
JL732 HKG-NRT 07/11/10 1500 - 1820 744 F2 A2
CX500 HKG - NRT 07/11/10 1510 - 1825 744 F0 A0
There are a few flights of the 744 and I think that JL also offers the Kaiseki (sp?) meal service on thos flights.
The flights are few and far between, though JL732 seems to have the standard F availability, with JL731 having the return F class availability

Now I really stand corrected, the CX flight to HND and back in early November is now showing F class.
I'll have to call and change my booking.
